Non-reproducible. If this is still being encountered in a current supported release, please contact Support Services.

Workaround

1. Export datasets to a File Geodatabase to create selections. 2. Select objects interactively. 3. Use the ArcObjects code below to complete the Select By Location operation: Public Sub SelectByLocation() On Error GoTo ErrorHandler Dim pFeatLayer As IFeatureLayer Dim pPYFeatLayer As IFeatureLayer Dim pMXDoc As IMxDocument Dim pMap As IMap Dim pSpatialFilter As ISpatialFilter Dim pFeatCursor As IFeatureCursor Dim pFeature As IFeature Dim pPYGeometry As IGeometry Dim pFeatSelection As IFeatureSelection Set pMXDoc = ThisDocument Set pMap = pMXDoc.FocusMap 'access the map layers Set pFeatLayer = pMap.Layer(0) Set pPYFeatLayer = pMap.Layer(1) 'get the py geometry Set pFeatCursor = pPYFeatLayer.Search(Nothing, False) Set pFeature = pFeatCursor.NextFeature() Set pPYGeometry = pFeature.ShapeCopy() Set pFeature = Nothing Set pFeatCursor = Nothing 'setup the spatial filter Set pSpatialFilter = New SpatialFilter Set pSpatialFilter.Geometry = pPYGeometry pSpatialFilter.GeometryField = pFeatLayer.FeatureClass.ShapeFieldName pSpatialFilter.SpatialRel = esriSpatialRelIntersects 'do the selection Set pFeatSelection = pFeatLayer pFeatSelection.SelectFeatures pSpatialFilter, esriSelectionResultNew, False pMXDoc.CurrentContentsView.Refresh 0 MsgBox "Done" Exit Sub ErrorHandler: MsgBox "Error: " & Err.Description End Sub --- The above code assumes the first map layer is the roads layer; the next is the poly layer.
